Tube bending and manipulation

Cheesman is expert in the rotary draw bending of stainless steel tube

Capabilities

Cheesman bends tube over a wide range of diameters and bend radii. Key capabilities are mandrel bending, 1D bending and 4” diameter tube bending. Investment in bend tooling is an on-going, continual process allowing the perfect tube form to be chosen for the required end result.

Tooling List

1D Bending

Cheesman offer 1D bending for a variety of tube diameters facilitating the fitment of parts in tight spaces.

Up to 4″ Bending

The largest tube diameter bent in-house by Cheesman is 4”, offered on 6” CLR and 1D.

Mandrel Bending

The use of a mandrel inside the tube during the bending process ensures minimal loss of tube diameter throughout each bend. The use of the latest CNC tube bending machines at Cheesman enables multiple bends to be produced in the same length of tube. XYZ co-ordinates or YBC data are checked dimensionally by co-ordinate measuring machine (CMM).
